Summary

Synergy Charter Academy is a public charter elementary school serving 318 students in grades K-5 in South Los Angeles, consistently performing above state averages despite serving a community where nearly all students qualify for free or reduced-price lunch.

When compared to nearby schools, Synergy stands out for its strong academic results. It ranks in the 67th percentile statewide, significantly higher than most neighbors, and its students outperform California averages in English, math, and science. The school is particularly effective in 4th grade and shows exceptional results for English Language Learners and students from economically disadvantaged backgrounds, which make up most of its enrollment. While chronic absenteeism is an area for improvement, its rate is better than most surrounding schools like Trinity Street Elementary or Maple Primary Center.

An interesting finding is that Synergy Charter Academy achieves these outcomes with notably lower per-student spending than traditional public schools in the Los Angeles Unified district, suggesting efficient use of resources. Along with the Center for Advanced Learning, it demonstrates that charter schools in this area are generally outperforming their local counterparts, providing a consistently high-quality option for families in the community.
